In a small forest on the edge of the base area.
A group of black shadows sprang out like ghosts, and moved into the next lurking location in a very orderly manner with skilled tactical movements.
The team stopped in another dense forest, which was already within the Eighth Route Army base area.
A voice sounded in the middle of the team, with a vaguely cold tone:
"According to the latest signal from the current detection aircraft, the high-power engine on Route 8 has been sending out signals. The signal is getting stronger and stronger. We can arrive after dawn."
"There will definitely be defensive forces surrounding the Eighth Route Army. No one is allowed to be exposed before arriving at the Eighth Route Army headquarters."
"Remember, from now on, those in the team who cannot speak Chinese well will use tactical sign language to communicate."
"When you meet the Chinese people and the Eighth Route Army, don't speak easily. When you speak, you are only allowed to speak Chinese. If anyone exposes the whereabouts of the troops, he should have his belly disemboweled to express gratitude to the Emperor!"
"yes!"
A group of rustic guys wearing patched uniforms of the Eighth Route Army, just like real Eighth Route Army soldiers, shouted in unison in Chinese.
This group of Japs was the Masuko Advance Team who was trying to attack the Eighth Route Army headquarters.
The person who spoke was the captain of the advance team, Masuko Tadao.
This group of Japanese soldiers took trucks to the edge of the base area and changed into Eighth Route Army uniforms and equipment.
According to the intelligence obtained by the Japanese intelligence personnel, the Masuko advance team entered the Eighth Route Army base area from a weakly defended position of the Eighth Route Army.
Masuko Tadao originally belonged to the 225th Regiment of the 37th Division. He was an ordinary squadron leader with the rank of lieutenant.
If he hadn't been spotted by Kazuki Yamamoto during the selection training of the special agent team, Tadao Masuko would have been loyal to the emperor like the other Japanese soldiers of the 225th Regiment in Moishiwa.
In terms of equipment, although the Masuko advance team could not afford the German MP38 submachine gun, Yamamoto Kazuki obtained 100 Hyaku-type submachine guns from Japan through connections.
Although the Hundred Type submachine gun was installed in the Japanese troops in February 1941, it had already been produced at this time.
The magazine of the gun is curved, somewhat similar to the Sten submachine gun, except that the magazine of the Sten submachine gun is straight.
However, the Japanese Army has a special obsession with hand-to-hand combat. They often use bayonets in the final stages of the battle, so they also install bayonets on their submachine guns.
In order to maintain the stability of shooting, this submachine gun also has a tripod.
However, the Japanese army only produced 1,000 of the first batch of 100-type submachine guns. Other troops seemed to dislike this firearm, so Yamamoto had the opportunity to get 100 of them.
Each of the Masuko Advance Team and the Okawa Advance Team were equipped with 50 units.
If the Mashiko advance team succeeds in the sneak attack this time, then this hundred-style submachine gun will also shine.
Yamamoto looked down upon those firearms officers with rotten minds and rigid minds. If tactics could be innovated, Yamamoto would be happy to see the advance teams of each regiment equipped with such submachine guns.
"Now rest for half an hour, eat and drink water, and replenish your strength!"
Masuko Tadao speaks Chinese, somewhat fluently, even with a Shanxi accent.
"yes!"
"Hi!"
One of the Japanese was speaking Japanese.
"Asshole!" Tadao Masuko glared at him coldly, and the Japanese man quickly said yes again.
The Japanese began to take out seaweed rice balls and canned beef from the sacks.
Although the sack looked shabby, it was like a small warehouse inside, containing not only rice balls and cans, but also weapons and ammunition.
…
"Don't go down yet, let's wait."
In Hanjia Village, on the hilltop a few hundred meters away, Lu Yingjun lowered his voice and said to the company commander Wang Tieshan beside him.
After Xu Yonghai was promoted to commander of the third battalion of the new regiment, Comrade Wang Tieshan, the original instructor of the first company, took over Xu Yonghai's position and became the commander and instructor of the first company.
The Sharp Sword Squadron is now at the battalion level, and Li Yunlong's order is that all orders must be obeyed by Lu Yingjun.
Wang Tieshan raised his telescope and looked in the direction of Hanjiacun. The ambush site and the village were pitch black and nothing could be seen.
Dim lights shone from the firing holes of a small turret and a small bunker.
"There are also Japanese artillery towers and bunkers here?"
Wang Tieshan's voice was very low, a little surprised.
In the large-scale raid launched by the Eighth Route Army some time ago, not to mention a place like this, even the railway line more than 20 kilometers away from Taiyuan was removed.
Nearly 500 kilometers of railways were destroyed, more than 1,500 kilometers of roads were damaged, and more than 3,000 strongholds, gun towers and bunkers were destroyed.
At this moment, the Japanese have not even repaired the gun towers on the Zhengtai Railway and the Tongpu Railway. The Japanese have actually built bunkers and gun towers here?
"A month or two ago, the gun towers and bunkers here were demolished by some brother army. They were newly built by the Japanese during this period."
Lu Yingjun, who also lowered his voice, said in a disdainful tone: "The more careful the Japs are, the more accurate the intelligence the regiment leader receives."
Captain Lu remembered that it was after he told the regiment leader about the intelligence detected here that the regiment leader suspected that there was a Japanese official here, and then the subsequent fishing plan was made.
Wang Tieshan's tone was equally disdainful: "The more cautious this devil is, the more flaws he will reveal. If he doesn't do this, nothing might happen."
Although the total strength of the company and the Sword Squadron is only 200, these 200 people are without exception the elite of the new regiment.
The equipment is also top-notch in the group.
The worst soldier in the company had a record of killing two Japanese.
Not to mention the Sharp Sword Squadron, the KDA is less than 5, and he is not even qualified to join the Sharp Sword Squadron for training.
In the words of other soldiers of the new group, the members of the Sword Squadron are all a group of monsters.
In the second half of the night, the Japanese from the bunkers and gun towers came out and patrolled along the highway with flashlights.
There were also Japanese soldiers holding flashlights and holding bayonets as they climbed up a new group of predetermined ambush cliffs, poking at the sorghum and corn stalks on the cliffs.
After checking on the road and cliffs and finding nothing, the Japanese withdrew their troops and returned to the bunkers and gun towers.
About an hour later, the First Company and the Sword Squadron went down the hillside like ghosts, heading towards the planned ambush site like water.
…
"Brother Chu, do you understand Japanese?"
In the headquarters of the new regiment, Li Yunlong asked Chu Yunfei.
In order to train the Sharp Sword Squadron, Li Yunlong specially invited comrades from the Enemy Industry Department of the Eighth Route Army Headquarters to teach the members of the Sharp Sword Squadron to learn Japanese.
It's just that the members of the Sharp Sword Squadron are still at the level of two swords.
Li Yunlong also attended it several times, but except for the curse words, he didn't remember a word of it.
Chu Yunfei replied: "I know a few words, for daily use."
Li Yunlong asked: "What did the Japanese say?"
"Can't hear clearly."
Chu Yunfei shook his head.
Li Yunlong asked: "How do you say good morning?"
Chu Yunfei: "Oh, you."
Li Yunlong: "Don't say anything?"
Chu Yunfei: "Faxade."
Li Yunlong: "What do you say, bastard?"
"Go down and ask yourself."
Chu Yunfei rolled his eyes at Captain Li. Why are you entertaining me here?
"If I could ask them, I wouldn't ask this. I would just ask, what are the little devils doing? It's like the fucking emperor is coming."
With a chuckle, Li Yunlong said: "Brother Chu can use a Browning pistol to see a large corps battle involving 20,000 people from both sides. It's not a bad deal."
Chu Yunfei said: "The world is still uncertain. Brother Yunlong is too happy to be happy. If the Japanese reconnaissance troops have been stuck in Dagou Bay, how can you prepare an ambush?"
Commander Li said confidently: "Brother Chu, learn a little better. Opportunities are reserved for those who are prepared. I am so well prepared this time. Am I afraid I won't have a chance?"
Chu Yunfei smiled and said: "Then Chu will wait and see."
…
"Your Excellency Major General, Yamamoto Daizuo sent a secret message, and the observation group can set off."
Early the next morning.
Major General Koshiki Toranosuke, commander of the 9th Brigade, had just gotten up when his communications staff walked in holding a telegram.
In order to ensure the top-secret nature of this operation, the communication between Yamamoto Kazuki and the 9th Brigade, the 29th Brigade and the 37th Division used new codes to prevent them from being deciphered by the Eighth Route Army.
Koshii Toranosuke's expression changed and he asked: "Did Yamamoto-kun tell me where the destination is?"
"No!" said the communications staff officer, "Let the observation group go to Hanjia Village first. After arriving at Hanjia Village, Yamamoto Daizuo will send the destination of the observation group via a coded message!"
Koshiki Toranosuke took the telegram from the communications staff and glanced at it:
"Go and ask General Hattori to come to my place."
"Hi!" the communications staff officer said, then walked out quickly.
About five minutes later, Major General Hattori Naoomi of the Japanese 21st Brigade came in with a displeased expression and a saber on his shoulder.
Koshii Toranosuke said: "Hattori-kun, this is the telegram just sent by Yamamoto-kun. Your observation group can set off. Let's go to Hanjia Village first."
Hattori Naoomi took the telegram from Koshii Toranosuke's hand and looked at it. He frowned tightly and said in a very dissatisfied tone:
"What on earth is Yamamoto-kun doing? He's still unwilling to tell us his destination. What on earth is he going to show us?"
Koshiki Toranosuke said with a wry smile: "General Shinozuka Yoshio has always doted on Yamamoto Daisaku and his special agents. This time the general mobilized two brigades and a division to be commanded by Yamamoto Daisaku. It was not until the final moment. , I don’t know what Yamamoto Daizao is going to perform for us.”
Hattori Naoomi snorted: "Yamamoto is an arrogant guy. He is a top student who graduated from the Munich Military Academy in Germany. I want to see what he brings back to us from Germany. I am a person who trusts my eyes. I have to see To something different.”
"Rebirth of the Great Era of Fighting Waves"
Koshii Toranosuke said: "I believe Yamamoto Daizao's performance will not disappoint Hattori-kun."
"I have sent soldiers to search the road leading to Hanjia Village, and have sent soldiers to guard the dangerous areas. It is absolutely safe."
"Hattori-kun, you and your army elites can ride there now."
In fact, Koshio Toranosuke knew that the destination of the observation group was Yelang Valley, and he sent two teams of soldiers to Yelang Valley for reconnaissance and search.
There are higher mountains in Yelangyu. Through the 32x artillery scope, you can see ten kilometers away.
At that time, Naoomi Hattori could see with his own eyes the battle scene in which Masuko's advance team beheaded the Eighth Route Army headquarters.
However, Yamamoto Kazuki specifically asked him not to reveal the destination in advance, so Koshiki Toranosuke did not tell Hattori Naoomi clearly.
At that moment, Naoomi Hattori walked out of the 9th Brigade headquarters with the major general's command sword in his arms.
Thirteen trucks are ready in the open space of the stronghold. In addition, there are 6 leftists and more than 100 officers above the squadron commander ready to stand.
Koshiki Toranosuke came out and said: "I prepared delicious rice balls and cans in the car for the empire's army elites, as well as a communications team and an elite escort team."
Hattori Naoomi looked cold, unwilling to say more, and just nodded.
He turned around and exchanged a military salute with Koshiki Toranosuke, then waved: "Get in the car, haha!"
A group of Japanese officers, escort teams and communication teams climbed onto the truck and drove towards Hanjiacun.
